We cram with flashcards, pull all nighters, and even sacrifice our social time to prove to the world that we retained what we learned that year. But are we *actually*...

Zachary: Bridgeport tutor
Certified Tutor in Bridgeport, CT
I believe that one of the biggest flaws in education is the lack of intimacy between teachers and their pupils. Instead of teaching students en masse, a more optimal approach is to make each lesson fit for the particular student. I have carried out this philosophy while tutoring in the past and I intend to continue doing so in the present and in the future.... The exact approach to responding to difficulty learning varies based on...
